Mike Garcia held Boston-AL scoreless on just 3 hits as the Philadelphia-AL Athletics topped the Boston-AL Red Sox by a score of 5 to 0 at Fenway Park. Garcia(1-0) was virtually untouchable. He gave up just 3 hits and 1 walk in 9 innings. Philadelphia-AL had a total of 11 hits for the game. Jim Wilson(0-1) suffered the loss. Garcia was obviously very pleased with his performance in the aftermath of the game, 'It was just one of those games where everything worked. My arm felt great, heck, I could have pitched another two or three innings. I only hope that I can do it again next time out!'
